    Unless I absolutely detest a scent, I will keep it in my collection, or give it to my mom or sister. I definitely want to try a fragrance in each season: just because I don’t like it in winter, doesn’t mean it won’t work in summer.

    • @Yummy411
      @Yummy411 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The hard part about loving Fragrances. I keep mine for a long time to test it in different seasons too.

    I brought back most of what I impulsively decluttered. I learnt a lesson - I always put the scent aside in a drawer for a few weeks and if I think about it and miss it, I don’t declutter it. Since I’ve started doing this, I don’t have failed declutters any more. Everything I declutter, I don’t miss at all. My brought back declutters include: Hypnotic Poison (it’s so gorgeous I need it in my collection), Guerlain Samsara (I thought it was too mature and then missed it), Armani Si (I thought it was “generic” because I saw a few reviews) had to bring it back because I adore its sexy DNA.
    I try not to be influenced by reviews and really keep/cherish what I genuinely like.

      @thesimplechiclife  2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Good idea!!! Yes I’m rather quick to let things go which is a blessing and a curse. I’m lucky that I don’t have drawers and closets bursting at the seams, but it does sometimes lead to regrets:)

      @sherlcollins7011 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I do the same thing! I put a few I didn't want in a box and put it away for a while and I started missing one of them (choco violette) so I brought it back out a wore it again. now I just love it!

    I let go of Replica By the fireplace at the beginning of the year. I still had a sample of it though. When I decided to let it go, I smelled mostly smoke out of it. But my nose has evolved and I pick up a lot more of the woody and vanilla sweet notes now. I’m really getting more into woody perfumes (thanks to Autumn Vibes by Replica) and I’ve been playing with the sample of by the fireplace and it smells so amazing to me now. I have a full size bottle on the way right now :) This is the first time I have brought back one I’ve decluttered in the past so far.

    • @JasmineMartinTV
      @JasmineMartinTV 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Have you tried The Only One 2?! Soooo good and has great lasting power. It has notes of blackberry, red berries, pear, tonka, coffee and some others. But if you like gourmand scents I think you’ll love that one too.

    • @PerfFume
      @PerfFume 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@JasmineMartinTV Omgosh I heard about it but haven’t smelled it yet! I think all of D&G perfumes are amazing so the only one 2 will probably be no exception and I’ll probably end up purchasing

    • @NorthernScentsAlaska
      @NorthernScentsAlaska 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree that The Only Intense is nothing like the original The Only One....its more like Dior Addict with coconut or Alien with coconut, i sold mine because i don't like Jasmine heavy fragrance

  • @CharlotteRossx
    @CharlotteRossx 2 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Thanks for clarifying on Black Xs - I was honestly confused when I looked into it - the different versions/formulations threw me off. And yes, literally the only reason I haven’t decluttered yet is because I fear I will regret it later. 🙈💁🏻‍♀️

  • @cmk9495
    @cmk9495 2 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    I guess it’s hard to control ourselves during the holidays with purchasing fragrances 😂 but my anxiety is getting bad with having so many. I haven’t brought any back that I had previously gotten rid of. I debate on bringing back some but I try to remember I got rid of it for a reason & I can explore newer/better ones.

    I’ve never really decluttered just given things away. I would have decluttered Chloe nomade absolue though and now I love it so much.

    @leamarie5129 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    The 2007 version of Black XS was my cousins signature scent!! And you're right it's definitely a beast. When she used to come over the whole house filled up with that scent and it stayed till long after she was gone! 😂 To me It's a very edgy, rocker chick fragrance that I'm not nearly cool or "boss" babe enough to pull off but it worked for her. Reminded me of a girl in a black leather jacket & boots.

    Hi!!!!! Omg, love it!!! I've brought a few back into my collection too! Just brought back Fatale Intense from Agent provocateur and Crystal Rose from Swiss Arabian. Crystal Rose smells identical to Roses Vanille from Mancera; it's one third of the price tag though.
    Earlier this year I brought back Florabotanica and The Only One Intense. Both were perfect in fall!

    Over 300 perfumes in my collection and never decluttered. Talking about fresh rose, my latest favourite is Perris Monte Carlo Rose de Taif, very prominent and sparkly, another one is Xerjoff from the Star collection Rose Gold and the bottle is stunning.

    I was like "yay! She brought The Only One and Coco Noir back! 👏😄. I have The Only One and it is not going anywhere. I have smelled Coco Noir and it's on my wishlist as a Christmas gift. I have a sample of Narciso Rouge and I think it's a very interesting perfume. Very nice to wear during this holiday season I think.

  • @AliaAriff
    @AliaAriff 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Once I declutter I never bring them back because I try to focus my attention to try the hundreds of other perfumes that exist (I should really, but the urge hasn’t been very strong)... but I still think of a couple of them. Crystal Noir, Florabotanica, Kayali Elixir, & Si Passione. They were all great performers with strong projection. I was a little intimidated of them early on in my perfume journey but I really do miss them. I remember people complimenting these scents too, sometimes I regret letting them go.

  • @xochitlpv8849
    @xochitlpv8849 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I haven't decluttered any yet since I started collecting again but I know I should. I have a bunch I don't reach for. I have switched to buying travel sprays or decant and only ordering full sizes of the ones I end up loving. I just ordered some Chanel to test out: CM EDP and Intense, No.5 L'eau, Coco Noir. Can't wait! I only own 1 Chanel, Chance Eau Tendre.

  • @Scentual_secret
    @Scentual_secret 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I decluttered my L’Interdit from Givenchy because I also have Kayali’s Deja Vu white flower and I thought they were so similar that I didn’t need both but ever since I’ve been missing it so much! In my opinion L’Interdit is way more sparkling and sophisticated where as the Kayali is more flirty/playful white floral so I plan on bringing it back into my collection soon ☺️
    Also LOVE narciso rouge, bought it based on your review a while back and have been in love with it since, it gives me Marilyn Monroe vibes lol 😂❤️

    • @thesimplechiclife

  • @Bebs-di5no
    @Bebs-di5no 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I used that black XS (2007) version, it was really good, so when I see people talking about it now and putting it down I feel really bad because I used to really love it, now it makes sense that they might have the newer formulation. I would say if you can find the 2007 version give it a try, I’m pretty sure you would love it. Meanwhile two perfumes I regret decluttering are Shaghaf oud and Gemma di paradiso and I have added Gemma back to my collection because couple of days after I sold it I wore a sweatshirt I spray it on and it smelled sooooo good and I had to add it back to my collection, Shaghaf I still haven’t added back but thinking about it especially for this time of the year.

    I just purchased D&G The Only One after saying I wouldn’t FB it ☺️. I also brought back La Nuit Trésor Nude (🥥❤️) which I decluttered in favour of Hibiscus Palm & Terracotta. Let’s just say now the whole peachy-juice family has been reunited.
    I’m grateful I can sniff & smell anything after briefly being anosmic from surgery. Glad I didn’t declutter everything~🤦🏻‍♀️!

    @chelseal6957 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Got rid of 7 virtues Vanilla Woods, Kayali Vanilla, Lancôme La Nuit Tresor a la Folie in the beginning of my fragrance journey but ended up repurchasing them all. Will keep them all except maybe the Lancôme. I was on a niche kick for a while but now that I’ve matured with my fragrance taste, I realized I like to have full bottles of more basic easy reach perfumes.

    • @chelseal6957
      @chelseal6957 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Also forgot I brought back Fenty Perfume (hit or miss with people but I feel like that profile is missing from my collection) and the Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Crush and Cheirosa 40 body sprays because I’ve come to appreciated body sprays more recently.

  • @1babbles1
    @1babbles1 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I was recently in love with the idea of Black XS by Paco Rabanne due to the cranberry note. I watched lots and lots of TH-cam reviews where I became aware of the new formulation. The majority of the reviewers recommended the older version, even though it is an edt, so I went on a hunt. I found it on FragranceX (they have both the old and new formulation). I nearly bought it but decided I’d better try to find a sample, which I did, on eBay. Once I tried it, I realized I did not like it. It’s just not for me, but for those who are still interested, eBay and FragranceX has the older version. Good luck!

    So I let go The only one like 1-2 yrs ago, however I do really love it and said the same as you “ what was I thinking “ husband said he didn’t care for it! I got compliments from my manicurist. She hugged me and pulled back and said “ you smell amazing “ I guess what happened to me is that for so many years I used florals and aquatics more Freshies. And just had to come to terms that I also like some sweet fragrances so I’m thinking of getting it back ,love the caramel, violet and iris that I pick up in it.

I'm debating bringing back D&G The One (my all-time fav) and the Only One - but I struggle with that brand. I'm also eyeing Azzaro Wanted Girl and Hugo Boss The Scent For Her Absolute - both of which I've had before but decluttered because I felt they were too close to YSL BO!

    Hi Ilythia,
    I agree with you, lifers (for me) are definitely worth getting a backup bottle. I have a handful of perfumes I cannot live without and I am working on acquiring a backup bottle for each. It’s a process though 😅 because there are so many awesome scents out there!!
    A few of my for life perfumes are:
    Sintra by Memo Paris
    En Passant by Frédéric Malle
    Deep N Desire Yacht by EBK
    Rouge Malachite by Armani Privé
    Ibitira by Xerjoff
    1957 by Les Exclusifs de Chanel
    Oud Jaune Intense by Fragrance Du Bois
    Delina by Parfums de Marly
    Souvenirs de Tunisie by Véronique Gabai
    I will never let go of these above because they make me smile and transport me elsewhere...

    I don’t really declutter because I know that sometimes my nose changes I have had perfumes that I couldn’t stand and now I love them. I do have a list of some perfumes that I want to acquire in 2022 including Coco Noir and Tobacco Vanille by Tom Ford.

    Hello, The only one smells so much like LVEB and Flowerbomb. The only one has Iris and Caramel. Black Opium pear 🍐 and I get hints of Licorice. The niche brand Nishane has Hundred silent ways, it’s very similar of BO except dry down is a buttery Vanilla. Notes are completely different too. Weird… lol

    The only full perfume I've ever thrown away was "claire" from lalique. Because I'm pretty sure I got a fake and it smelled like actual cat piss. The bottle was plastic too... Anyway I buy ridiculous amounts of samples and only purchase full bottles of absolute loves (shalimar souffle, Elie Saab edp, Green Tea Elizabeth Arden, and Prada infusion d'iris are the currently owned full size.) Everything else is samples or travel spray. Its due to price honestly. That's why I love your videos!! I live my perfume life vicariously through your channel lol.

    I blind bought Valentine Valentina Pink a few months ago and I love it. One of my absolute faorites. What are your thoughts on unisex fragrances? Do you think they should be worn by both men and women or that it depends on the fragrance?

    • @thesimplechiclife
      @thesimplechiclife  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think it depends on what the person likes; personally I don’t love unisex perfumes, I prefer smelling feminine. Every unisex perfume I’ve ever had in my wardrobe has left at some point. :/ but I love a lot of them!

      @thesimplechiclife  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They’re similar ish ; Loubirouge is not musky, it’s a bit spicy/soft woody. Narciso rouge is more powdery musky and lacks a strong vanilla note, also not spicy. So there quite different ; but, could be worn for the same occasion:) and do have sooner similarities:)
